In Bridesmaids Movie, Annie who lives with her male roommate and his younger sister(Who pays NO RENT) pays her share of the rent. The male Roommate who also pays his share of the rent . Annie points out that his Adult Sister pays no rent there. So, what does the brotger do? He kicks out Annie who actually paid her rent! So stupid! Why would the brother ensure that he has to pay the entire rent? If anything, the non paying rent sister should have been the one kicked out!

This sounds like every other case on Judge Judy.

Okay, this isn't a dumb scene, but in both the musical and movie, in Momma Mia, why didn't Sophie ask herself which of these three men do I look like?

in Momma Mia, ?


You watched all of Mama Mia? I
never got past 60 year old Meryl
Streep making an ass out of herself
and quit watching 20 min in.

But the one who is actually paying rent on Judge Judy Episodes usually isn't the one who gets kicked out of apartments...

Mamma Mia does not resemble a real life situation in any way shape or form. While I am sure that many children wonder who their father really was, I think Mamma Mia follows pure fantasy in the manner of "How to Marry a Millionaire" in the early 1950s.

That's a relief. In the 20 min
I watched I thought I was
losing my mind. Luckily I
missed scenes like this:

That's absolutely true. I meant in a sense there is always a deadbeat who eventually gets kicked out for not paying rent and always has some excuse or lie for why he/she (usually she) doesn't owe any back rent and often found something frivolous to counter-sue over.

I have a hard time with that concept. I take everything very seriously and literally.
